is seriously injured. officers haven't given any details at this stage of the suspect's identity or indeed his motive, but video shows emergency vehicles and heavily armed police at the scene of that memorial, which of course honours 6 million jews murdered in the holocaust. the area has been sealed off as forensic teams gathered their evidence, and witnesses are being given trauma support. as patrick mentioned at the top of the houn mentioned at the top of the hour, we will, of course, keep across all the details coming to us from berlin and bring you the very latest. turning to the united states now, where donald trump has accused emmanuel macron and keir starmer of doing nothing to end the war in ukraine. it comes ahead of their visit to the white house next week. however, cabinet minister pat mcfadden insists britain is in a good position, with mr trump urging his government colleagues to focus on actions not just what donald trump says. well, speaking to fox news earlier, the us president also said volodymyr zelenskyy has no cards in the peace talks. take
3:02 am
listen. >> but they didn't do anything ehhen >> but they didn't do anything either. the war is going on. no meetings with russia, no nothing. you know they haven't done anything. and if you know, macron is a friend of mine, and i've met with the prime minister and, you know, he's a very nice guy, but nobody has done anything. and i've been watching this go on for years, and i'm doing it for one reason i hate the killing. i hate to see those young people killed. they're not americans. they're russians and ukrainians. i hate to see the killing. >> and also breaking tonight, the man who tried to kill author salman rushdie has been found guilty of attempted murder and assault. 27 year old hadi matar now faces more than 30 years in prison for the 2022 attack in new york, where he stabbed rushdie 15 times. sir salman did survive but lost vision in one eye and has a paralysed hand. dufing eye and has a paralysed hand. during the trial, he recalled thinking he'd been punched before realising he'd been stabbed in the neck and in the jaw. here at home, the

mastermind behind the murder of police officer sharon beshenivsky has been found dead in prison this morning, just months after finally being jailed. piran khan spent nearly two decades on the run before his extradition from pakistan last year, and given a life sentence with a minimum of 40 years. the 76 year old had a terminal illness and was receiving daily treatment, though officials say his death is not suspicious. pc beshenivsky was shot when responding to an armed robbery in bradford nearly 20 years ago. reform uk's deputy leader richard tice has slammed labour, claiming they failed to take immigration seriously and dismiss working class voters. it comes after a letter seen by gb news reveals sir keir starmer told his ministers to admit his party ignored working people's concerns about immigration for too long. the prime minister also says politicians have become too scared to acknowledge that some migrants are genuine refugees, but others aren't. he also warns labour must stop
3:04 am
patronising voters and counter the rise of reform uk's policies. and he's also pledged to stand up for ordinary people who he says feel shut out and ignored by elites. and just before i hand you back to patrick and the panel, three men convicted in connection with a vile grooming gang in west yorkshire will have their sentences reviewed by the court of appeal. that's after an mp called them pathetically short. 47 year old ibrahim hussain and brothers imtiaz and fayyaz ahmed, aged 62 and 45, were sentenced last month to prison terms ranging from just six and a half years to nine years. the case involved the abuse of two teenage girls in the 1990s and now, following public outcry, the solicitor general has referred their sentences to the court of appeal for review. that's the news on gb news. i'll be back with you in an hour. now, though, it's over to the very first, very special patrick christys tonight , on friday. christys tonight, on friday. >> for the very latest gb news direct to your smartphone. sign

3:06 am
for hamas. you know , this hamas. for hamas. you know, this hamas. >> would be. to be here for us to merchan. >> yeah. shocking stuff, isn't it? yeah. and now one of our immigration lawyers wants us to take gazan refugees. now, these are the same people cheering that you just saw there as coffins of dead jewish babies went past. >> oh, come. hinckley. jason bradbury. >> all right. okay, so let's get into this with the panel. we're going to take a couple of questions from this wonderful audience tonight. the question really is, should britain take any palestinian refugees? i think we'll start at the end here with you, stephen, if that's alright. where are you on this? should we take gaza and refugees, do you think? >> well, let's start with this.
3:07 am
i don't think anyone in this audience, when we look at the gazan children and the women and children that have been brutalised and across the bombs that have come along would not see that they've been suffering, that they too have also lots of pain. and so our hearts go out to them and to their suffering and want to help them in any way that we can. but also we must also recognise that our immigration system has been abused over the last 20 or 30 years. it's not been strong enough to control those people coming into this country that have potentially been criminals, knowledgeable to ourselves, who have been terrorists, and those who are abusing our own systems. so my view is this perhaps we should be more sensible and allow some, like the women and children, to consider that, but have very strong vetting systems in place to ensure that the criminals are deported, are not allowed in, and that they also have a route back when this is over. >> oven >> all right. now i'm going to go to joe in a second. so wherever you are, joe, you get
3:08 am
yourself ready in a second. but, barry, do you have a different view? i mean, what was your reaction when you saw that verdict from the immigration judge that hugo benedict norton taylor has now become a household name? of course, that we should be taking these people. a lot of people have reservations. seemingly a lot of people were cheering for hamas. >> well, look, i actually agree with a lot of what stephen just said. as far as the court case is concerned, i think we need to understand that this was it was it became a cause celeb because it became a cause celeb because it was supposed to be under the ukrainian resettlement scheme. right. and how could a gazan apply under the ukrainian resettlement scheme? and what you've got to understand is what home office policy is, which says that if you're applying outside of the rules. and miriam i know, knows this from her time as an mp, then you have to apply under whatever rule most closely approximates to your case. and in this case, it was approximates to your case. and in this case, it
